  • creating self-funding institutions (his case study is the Maharishi Institute in Johannesburg), creating institutions where students pay no fees, and earn while they’re there. Maharishi will educate up to 2000 students a year, full time education, at no cost to them or the state.
  • students adding value to community and business as they earn while they learn (Maharishi provides outsourcing capabilities for companies)
  • experiences with government funding, where it falls down in real life - in South Africa, dropout rates were still very high, as students needed to earn a living to support their families
  • where else can funding come from? How to really create win-win with companies when fundraising, not just handouts, promoting sustainable relationships because of joint benefits.
  • save expenditure by using recycled computers, software, books, furniture to set up institutions.
  • thereby removing costs (harnessing what is available) and creating entrepreneurial spirit
